Can I use the Neo65 Core Plus wirelessly?

Absolutely! The Neo65 Core Plus supports tri-mode connectivity, allowing you to use it wired via USB-C, or wirelessly via Bluetooth and 2.4GHz. With two large 2200mAh batteries included, you can enjoy long-lasting wireless typing sessions on both PC and mobile devices.

What mounting options are available for this keyboard?

You can choose between a classic gummy O-ring mount for a softer, flexible feel, or a PCB gasket mount for a more balanced typing experience. The gasket system is also compatible with plateless builds, giving you greater flexibility to tailor the sound and feel to your preference.

Which plate materials can I select with the Neo65 Core Plus?

You have the option of carbon fiber, aluminum, or polypropylene (PP) plates. Carbon fiber offers the firmest feel and brightest sound, aluminum provides a balanced middle ground, and PP delivers a softer, deeper, and quieter typing experience. This allows you to fine-tune your board’s acoustics and typing feedback.

Is the Neo65 Core Plus compatible with both hotswap and solder PCBs?

Yes, you can choose between a hotswap PCB for easy switch swaps without soldering, or a solder PCB for those who want a permanent, customized build. Both options use a USB-C connection and support NKRO (N-Key Rollover) for fast, accurate typing.

Does this keyboard have RGB lighting?

No, the Neo65 Core Plus focuses on delivering premium acoustics and build quality, so it does not include RGB lighting. This design choice keeps the board sleek and minimizes distractions, perfect for those who value sound and feel above all.

How heavy is the Neo65 Core Plus?

Depending on your chosen weight material, the keyboard is impressively hefty for stability and premium feel. With a brass weight, it weighs about 1.34kg, and with copper, it’s even heavier at 1.42kg (excluding the PCB or plate).

Can I easily open and maintain the Neo65 Core Plus?

Yes! Thanks to its magnetic connectors, disassembling the keyboard for maintenance or modifications is straightforward and tool-friendly, making it ideal for enthusiasts who like to tinker or upgrade.

What colors does the Neo65 Core Plus come in?

You can choose from a wide array of finishes, including anodized shades like Burgundy, Heather Purple, Black, Titanium Grey, Teal, Jade, Slate Blue, Mont Blanc, and Silver, as well as spray-coated options like Spark White and Eclipse Grey. This variety makes it easy to match your keyboard to your setup or personal style.

What is the typing angle and front height of this keyboard?

The Neo65 Core Plus offers a comfortable 7-degree typing angle and a front height of 18.1mm, providing ergonomic support for long typing sessions without straining your wrists.

Can I build the Neo65 Core Plus without using any foam?

Definitely! The keyboard is specially engineered to sound great even without foam, thanks to its internal structure and hefty base. However, a foam kit is included if you prefer additional dampening or want to experiment with sound tuning.

Product Description

The Qwertykeys Neo65 Core Plus is a 65% mechanical keyboard kit aimed at users who want a compact layout with flexible build and sound customization. It suits hobbyists and enthusiasts who value acoustic tuning and prefer a solid, weighty keyboard with multiple connectivity options. Its design supports both wired and wireless use, with a focus on reducing hollow echoes and vibration for a natural typing sound without foam.

Key Features

65% layout balances compactness and functionality, saving desk space while retaining essential keys.
Dual mounting options (gummy O-ring or PCB gasket) allow users to adjust typing feel and sound by changing how the plate and PCB are isolated.
Tri-mode connectivity supports wired USB-C, 2.4GHz wireless, and Bluetooth, offering versatile use cases.
Hotswap or solder PCB options let users choose between easy switch swapping or a more permanent build.

Build Quality

Unibody aluminum case with ultra-slim bezels provides a sturdy and sleek frame.
Brass or copper bottom weight adds heft and dampens vibrations, contributing to a more natural sound without relying on foam.
Carbon fiber, aluminum, or polypropylene plates offer varying typing feel and sound profiles, from hard and high-pitched to softer and deeper.
Tuned internal structure reduces hollow echoes, improving acoustic quality.

Typing Experience

Typing angle of 7 degrees supports a comfortable wrist position for extended use.
Sound profile varies by plate material, allowing users to tailor the keyboard’s acoustic output.
Includes foam kit and O-rings to further customize typing sound and feel.

Connectivity

Tri-mode operation enables seamless switching between wired USB-C, 2.4GHz wireless with included dongle, and Bluetooth.
Two 2200mAh batteries support wireless use, though exact battery life is unknown.

Trade-offs

Only available as a full kit including PCB and plate, limiting flexibility for users wanting to source parts separately.
Relatively heavy due to metal weights, which may reduce portability.
Prebuilt customization requires soldering or hotswap knowledge; not ideal for beginners without experience.
Acoustic improvements rely on case design and materials rather than foam alone, which may not suit users seeking very quiet keyboards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

The Neo65 Core Plus stands out with its unibody aluminum case and precision-engineered internal structure, designed to eliminate echo and enhance acoustics. It offers a uniquely natural, foam-free sound profile, thanks in part to its brass or copper base that adds both weight and resonance control.
